Boris Johnson abruptly ends Good Morning Britain interview in Ukraine
Boris Johnson abruptly ended a live interview in Kyiv on Good Morning Britain on Monday.
Speaking from the Ukrainian capital three years after Russia’s invasion, the former PM said he believed a minerals agreement between the US and Ukraine was close to being signed – before then abruptly ending the interview.
Pressed on how he thought world leaders should communicate with Mr Trump, Mr Johnson said: “You have to keep knocking the ball back over the net. I mean this is crazy stuff… but you’ve got to look at what is actually being proposed.
“When you look at the potential of the [minerals] agreement – I think that it’s positive for Ukraine”.
He then said: “I’ve got to go”, before removing his equipment in a hurry on camera and walking out of shot.
